Why these products were recalled

NUTRA Balance Pre-Thickened Water was found to contain mold.

NUTRA Balance Thickened Water Nectar Thick was found by the FDA to contain mold. In addition, Thickened Water Pudding thick was sampled by Nutra Balance Products and it subsequently tested positive for Enterobacter sp. and Xanthomonas sp.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
